Ronnie Rondell Jr., the veteran Hollywood stuntman best known for being set on fire for Pink Floyd’s iconic 1975 Wish You Were Here album cover, has died at the age of 88. With over 200 film and TV credits, Rondell Jr.’s distinguished career spanned from 1955 to 2003, and included work on major projects like Lethal Weapon, The Matrix Reloaded, and Charlie’s Angels. During the album cover shoot, he was engulfed in flames multiple times, losing an eyebrow and part of his mustache, but his fiery stunt became one of rock music’s most legendary images. “I’d been doing a lot of fire work in those days, and I had the special suits and all this stuff for fully enveloped fire,” Rondell Jr. said in the documentary Pink Floyd: The Story of Wish You Were Here. “It was pretty easy to do, not too life-threatening, and paid well.” Rondell Jr. passed away at a Missouri senior living facility on Tuesday (August 12), according to an announcement by his family, though no cause of death was provided.
